Official release OMNIS™ 4.2

Leverage the new coupled pressure-based solver in the newest version of OMNIS™ 4.2.
Born from the exclusive joint-venture between NUMECA and coupledNumerics, the new OMNIS™/Open-PBS widens the range of applications with fast and robust convergence for low-speed and incompressible flows, ideal for Conjugate Heat Transfer and thermal management analysis.
New coupled pressure-based solver
Thanks to the simultaneous solution of momentum and continuity equations with an implicit block coupling of pressure and velocity variables, the Open-PBS solver yields faster convergence compared to classical, loosely-coupled, segregated pressure-based solvers.
Conjugate Heat Transfer and thermal management
The segregated formulation of the energy equation and the implicit treatment at the fluid-solid connections make the solver more stable and faster for conjugate heat transfer applications.
Application examples:
-
Heat exchanger
-
Automotive thermal management
-
Cooling systems
-
Electric motor
-
HVAC
-
...and more
Low speed rotating machinery
With multi-domain capacities and multiple reference frames, the Open-PBS solver is a perfect solution for a broad range of low speed rotating machinery applications.
Application examples:
-
Fans
-
Thermal turbomachinery
-
Hydro turbines
-
Pumps
-
...and more
We hope you will enjoy this new version of OMNIS™.
